Technical FAQs 4

What are the different types of solar inverters?

Different types of inverters serve various needs and setups. Let's explore the main types available. String inverters connect a series of solar panels, or a 'string,' to one inverter. The inverter then converts the combined DC power from these panels into AC power. String inverters are popular due to their cost-effectiveness and simplicity.

What type of solar panel inverter do I Need?

The most common type of solar panel inverter used in solar panel installations is the string inverter.

What is a solar inverter?

A solar inverter, or solar panel inverter, is a pivotal device in any solar power system. Solar inverters efficiently convert the direct current (DC) produced by solar panels into alternating current (AC), the form of electricity used in homes and on the power grid.

How do I choose a solar inverter?

The size of your solar and inverter setup should align closely with the power output of your solar panels. The efficiency rating indicates how well an inverter converts solar energy into usable electricity. Look for inverters with high efficiency ratings, typically above 95%, to ensure you're getting the most out of your solar panels.
